Remington Titanium MicroScreen Shaver - MS5100


... I have had the Remington MS 5100 for a few years;

Postiives:
- Decent closeness of shave
- Easy to hold; nice grip and design
- Easy to clean

Negatives:
- Beard trimmer sucks - awkward design, not easy for around ears or neck
- Third foil that extends out sucks -- pulls hairs, not shaves hairs
- Battery duration/ife drained quickly; requiring use while plugged in
- Battery is irreplaceable!! Argh. So, now, when I travel, I have to take the cord and ensure I have a plug near a mirror.
- The razor is TOO young to be at the end of its life. Pisses me off. I got 2 to 3 years use out of this razor before it ended up in a state where my previous 2 Brauns took 6 to 7 years. I'm going back to Braun.

My users manual is copyrighted 2005. I bought it new in either 2005 or 2006. Well, it is fall 2008, and my battery no longer holds a charge. I've unscrewed the components, only to discover that the battery is not replaceable! Argh. Previously, I had two Brauns which lasted me over 6 years each.
